Ebel's Weiss beer is a very traditional German Hefeweizen that is naturally unfiltered. It has wonderful malt sweetness and a soft aroma of clove, vanilla, and banana. This deep golden colored weiss will make you think you are in Bavaria.

Pours hazy pale orange with a one finger white head that dissipates quickly.

Nose has notes of banana clove and citrus phenols with a backbone of wheat and straw like malts

Yeast is upfront and is dominate. Hints of citrus are present before it finishes with wheat on the back end.

Light and refreshing. Carbonation doesn't last long but is good while its there
Overall this is a good hefe with a good amount of complexity and a healthy amount of yeast. Very drinkable.

"Best by 1/22/21"; drank 12/6/21 @ the Yarchives.

Cloudy dull orange/yellow appearance.

A rough pour yielded a small white head; nice lacing.

Banana, soft wheat, mild clove & faint lemon notes in the nose.

Soft, medium mouthfeel.

Banana, soft wheat & mild clove flavors; a simple, very effective hefe. I'd have another!

12oz bottle, shared with my wife; a gift from her aunt Grace. Best By 03/17/19. The last time I had this was probably almost 10 years ago and I wasn't a fan. Rigorous pour produces a hazy yellow-golden body capped by a very thin white head that holds minimal retention. Aroma is definitely weissbier and smells good: banana, clove, wheat, lemony citrus, earthy hops. Flavors are less appealing: lots of banana esters with wheat, clove, lemongrass, and noble hops; but it's too much banana making it sweet. Lighter body, ample carbonation, sweeter finish. Still just ok in my opinion. Too much banana - fermented too warm? So many other options out there that it will probably be another 10 years before I have this again.

Draft imperial pint at Midway airport Chicago. Somewhat cloudy golden yellow color , very sparse white head. Big clove and banana aroma. Flavor follows with prickly pepper and wheat spice to differentiate it and give extra character. A bit of vanilla in there too. Very nice with my Cobb salad.
